10" Clear Big Blue Filter Housing – Transparent Whole House Water Filtration
The 10" Clear Big Blue Filter Housing offers high-capacity water filtration with a transparent bowl that allows you to see the condition of the filter cartridge without opening the housing.
The clear design is ideal for homeowners and businesses that want visual confirmation of when a cartridge needs replacement. Ideal for sediment-heavy or iron-rich water, this housing provides powerful first-stage filtration for whole house systems using municipal or well water.
Built for durability and performance, the filter head features copper-threaded 1" NPT inlet and outlet ports that provide secure, leak-free connections and resist cross-threading or cracking. A built-in pressure relief button on the cap allows for easy air release when changing filters.

Installation and Maintenance
Installation is simple using standard plumbing tools. Mount the housing securely to the wall with the included bracket and connect it to your plumbing using the 1" copper-threaded ports. Ensure that there is adequate clearance below the housing to facilitate easy filter changes.
We recommend replacing the filter cartridge every 6 to 12 months, depending on the quality of your water. As a preventive measure, consider replacing the filter bowl every five years to avoid wear-related issues.
For best results, flush the system for 10 minutes after installing a new cartridge and check for any leaks before regular use.
